I do, when you purchase baits Raul style you can expect to have a stock of baits that wil last you for a good couple of decades and maybe a little bit more. ( no wonder why I still fish with them and in colors long time discontinued )

Back to the question,

Which one is my favorite worm ? --> straight tail worm ( used to be Mann 's Jelly worm ( no longer in my stock ), now it 's Zoom Trickworm ).

Which one is my favorite hook ? 3/0 offset Owner for that worm.


fishing user avatarWayne P. reply : 

I still do occasionally. The color I have the most of is the black grape with FS454.

You still got FS454 ?  :) ..... man that 's a blast from the past !


fishing user avatarinfamous512 reply : 

I mostly use Zoom's trick worm, mag 11 & ole monsters with 1 piece-gamikatsu hook and 1/4oz weight attached together(from academy).


fishing user avatarJVM reply : 

I always liked the run of the mill nightcrawlers with eagle claw barbed bait hooks.  Not sure what size.  Grab my Snoopy-pole, a can of worms and box of hooks and bobbers and get rdy to do some pro-style bassin!

...j/k.  Good question tho...?????

10" plum power worm with a 5/0 Owner rig'n hook


fishing user avatarFat-G reply : 

Mine (so far) are either a Zoom Trick Worm or a....... Zoom Trick Worm. For some reason, I just flat out catch big fish on these. The Red Sapphire is my favorite color.


fishing user avatarBassn Blvd reply : 

use 4/0 and 5/0 Tru-Turn and straight shanked hooks for worm fishing.


fishing user avatarWayne P. reply : 

Raul, I also have a toothpaste size tube of FS454 that I bought after it was not included already applied in the package. I also have some worm packs that have the small tube in it for self application (which  came out later).

Yep, I'm old.


fishing user avatarDock Master reply : 

    Gambler Giggy Stick in chartruese pumpkin with the tails dyed in red garlic Spike-It.

    Don't fish it on a regular hook much (mostly I fish it on a Spot Remover 1/4 oz.), but if I did probably a 3/0 Owner Wide Gap Plus hook.

fishing user avatarRyder EK reply : 

I've been having good results with 5.8" watermelon pepper Jackall flick shake worms, wacky rigged on Jackall 3/32 weedless jig head hooks.


fishing user avatarOIFBasser reply : 

I like using Mann's Jellyworms in black grape weightless with a 5/0 EWG, or pegging it with a 7/0 ol' monster. Roboworms zipperworms in Aarons magic, and black grape with 4/0 EWG. Zoom trickworms in Junebug, white, and pumpkin/pearl. Stickbaits, senkos are the best, but also like Netbait salt lick, ***, and dingers.

I generally use Gamakatsu hooks due to being reliable and cost effective.

fishing user avatarSuthernProg reply : 

I actually have to claim 2. One when there's biguns around, one for regulars. I like 7.5" Red Shad Culprits on a 4/0 Gamakatzu EWG, and for the other I like a 6" Roboworm straight tail (weird name for color, can't remember it) on a 2/0 Owner offset. Using Tru-Tungsten weights.

Real worms are lethal on bass for sure. The only problem is the perch and panfish get to them first usually.


fishing user avatariceintheveins reply : 

My favorite all around worm is probably the 6" zoom u tale in black. I also love 4" power worms and ringworms with a curltail. I pair the 6" worm with a 2/0 or 3/0 EWG gammy and the 4" with a 1/0 EWG gammy.

So true :),  4inch senko in watermelon with black flake, 03 or 04 gammie offset shank hook.  That combo has not failed me in the past couple weeks.   Although im new to the bass game so I haven't had the pleasure of really trying out alot of things.


fishing user avatarSnappinTurtle reply : 

I change around some on worm color/size, as of now the one I throw most often is the Zoom Mag 11 in watermelon/red or the Ole Monster in same color with a Gamakatsu 3/0 hook and 3/16 bullit weight.


fishing user avatarUrbanAngler reply : 

been working the 6" roboworms (balkgrape/aaron's magic), texas rigged on a 1/0-2/0 EWG  followed by a bead and 1/8oz bullet and they been getting the job done. :) 8-)
